Bee Pollen
MULTIFLORA BEE POLLEN HARVESTED FROM THE HIVE - spring 2025
I purchased one pollen trap in 2025 with the knowledge that one of my hives seems to love to hoard pollen, so I knew they'd be able to provide me with a small supply to offer for sale! Please note: there are less than 10 vials available for purchase!
0.35 oz bee pollen: $7 per vial
Please watch the video or read the highlights below to learn more about bee pollen, including important health precautions and if bee pollen is right for you!
Please note:
Our bee pollen is collected in the heart of Denver, Colorado at the location of the beekeeper's residence in SW Denver. It is not certified organic and the honey bees collect pollen within a 2-3 mile radius of the hive, which spans from US highway 6 (North), University Blvd (East), Wadsworth Blvd (West) and US Highway 285 beyond Oxford (South). Bee pollen is known to absorb contaminants in the air quite easily. This pollen was collected over a 24hr time span from 3 o'clock PM - 3 o'clock PM the following day.

In rare cases, bee pollen can cause mild to severe allergic reactions, which may include anything from hives to anaphylaxis. This often depends on the source of pollen or specific plant species. For those especially sensitive or asthmatic, consumption of bee pollen is not recommended.
